# Ticon

> Ticon is a location intelligence and traffic analytics company serving retail, convenience stores, fuel, quick service restaurants, car washes, and commercial real estate across the United States. Ticon produces address-specific vehicular traffic data — volumes, speeds, congestion, seasonality — together with demographic profiling of passing traffic, to support site selection, sales forecasting, staff scheduling, and operations planning.

Founded in 2016. Traffic data available from 2013 onward, with 24/7 observation, 9 traffic parameters, and 101 demographic parameters. AADT estimates hold expected error within 20% at 90% confidence, with consistent accuracy across all functional road classes and full time coverage to minimise error where temporal traffic fluctuation is high.

Ticon delivers through two channels: C-Site Insight, a report product with five tiers from rapid screening to bankable feasibility studies, and TrafficZoom, a self-service map platform for instant nationwide traffic lookups.

## Services

- Traffic data reports and traffic data analysis: annual volumes (AADT), directional AADT for primary and secondary roads and for adjacent highways and offramps, hourly counts, intraday volume in 15-minute bins, seasonal and daily fluctuation, intraday flow speed, congestion and rush hour analysis, travel time distribution, and driver behavior.
- Traffic demographics: demographic profiling of passing traffic. Each observed vehicle is attributed the average demographic profile of the 1-mile hexagonal cell containing the driver's residence, shifting analysis from trip origin to traveler identity.
- Site, location, and trade area analysis: market analysis beyond sales forecasting, covering site demographics, economics, and current market conditions. Trade area assessment extends past the immediate and extended trade areas to include passing traffic, identifying customer profile within the flow and sizing the target audience.
- Feasibility studies and sales forecasting: for retail, gas stations, convenience stores, car washes, and quick service restaurants. Combines high-resolution demographic and geospatial data, traffic volumes, competitive analysis, and industry variables such as visitor rate, fuel pricing, and average check size.
